PURPOSE To promote what was called a "civilized divorce" among the
former Soviet states. 1. Many feared the breakup of the Soviet Union would lead to political
and economic chaos, if not outright conflict over borders.
To promote integration among the newly independent states. 1. CIS did not succeed.2. No consensus among them on what should replace the Soviet state.3. The need to develop national political and economic systems took
precedence in many states, dampening enthusiasm for any project of reintegration.
4. CIS members have also been free to sign or not sign agreements as they see fit, creating a hodgepodge of treaties and obligations among CIS states.

PURCHASING POWER PARITY AND EXCHANGE RATES
Purchasing power parity (PPP) is a theory of long-term equilibrium exchange rates based on relative price levels of two countries.
The best-known and most-used purchasing power parity exchange rate is the Geary-Khamis dollar.
PPP exchange rate fluctuations are mostly due to different rates of inflation between the two economies.
In short, PPP takes into account as if there was a standard international Currency used by all countries and determining the cost for that measure.

SOME NOTABLE COLLABORATIONS EurAsian Economic Community (EAEC): Collaboration of Russian federation and Belarus in 1995. Rest
countries joined later on. It aims to create common external policies, tariffs, customs, prices, and other components of a customs union and common market, such as a single currency, harmonization of national legislation, uniform foreign investment regimes, and joint transport and power markets.
Central Asian Cooperation Organization (CACO): Kyrgyz Republic signed a treaty with Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan

SOME NOTABLE COLLABORATIONS
ECO Trade Agreement (ECOTA): Was signed by Afghanistan,Iran,Pakistan,Tajikistan
and Turkey in July 2003. Progressive elimination of Non Tariff Barriers and tariff rationalization. Aimed at raising intra-regional trade from 6% to 20% till 2015.

COMMON ECONOMIC SPACE
Involves a supranational commission on trade and tariffs that would be based in Kiev, initially be headed by a representative of Kazakhstan, and would not be subordinate to the governments of the four nations.
The ultimate goal would be a regional organization that would be open for other countries to join as well, and could eventually lead even to a single currency.

FAILURES / DRAWBACKS The CIS lost most of its momentum and was victimized by
internal rifts, becoming, according to some observers, largely irrelevant and powerless.
By 1993, the ruble zone collapsed, with each state issuing its own currency.
In 1993 and 1994, eleven CIS states ratified a Treaty on an Economic Union (Ukraine joined as an associate member).
A free-trade zone was proposed in 1994, but by 2002 it still had not yet been fully established.
In 1996 four states (Russia, Belarus, Krygyzstan, Kazakhstan) created a Customs Union, but others refused to join.
All these efforts were designed to increase trade, but, due to a number of factors, trade among CIS countries has lagged behind targeted figures. More broadly speaking, economic cooperation has suffered because states had adopted economic reforms and programs with little regard for the CIS and have put more emphasis on redirecting their trade to neighboring European or Asian states.
